The Q9000, which is recognised by the Law Society of Ireland and awarded by the Institute of Legal Research and Standards, is the most advanced strategic, risk and quality management standard for law firms demonstrating exceptional levels of strategic, innovation and quality management.

This progressive and professional full-service law firm has continued to maintain a top-level score over the last twelve years of independent risk management accreditation. This is a very impressive achievement, particularly as the firm have managed to increase its score in 3 modules this year. This is a testament to the work of those involved in implementing the risk management strategy in the firm.
